The New Urban Crisis

• GTIN: 9781541644120

In "The New Urban Crisis," Richard Florida dissects the paradoxical nature of modern urban centers. He argues that while cities are experiencing unprecedented growth and attracting talent, this success creates new problems, including rising inequality, unaffordable housing, and intensified segregation. Florida explores how the benefits of urbanization are not evenly distributed, leading to a crisis of affordability and access. The book offers insights into the drivers of this crisis and proposes solutions to create more inclusive and equitable cities.
